Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity's finances and reserves have been 'considerably depleted' due to high staff costs, temporary cover, and recruitment fees. The trustees note that the daily fee increase to £35 is intended to cover higher running costs, but the charity remains vulnerable to risks including staff shortages, potential closure due to redevelopment, and trustee succession issues.
